Be specific ~ FEDERAL INCOME TAX ~ but they do pay taxes. NO ONE gets away without paying something in some way.

Unless you're talking about the federal gasoline tax, they DON'T pay any taxes. The withholding for Social Security and Medicare are contributions to a public pension system and an old age medical program. That money will all be repaid -- with disastrous consequences for the country -- because no politician will ever renege on a promise to deliver those benefits.

Accepting the premise that FICA is a "tax" allows leftard politicians to have their cake and eat it, too, claiming on the one hand that FICA is a tax when they want to pretend that everybody is contributing to the country, and on the other hand calling the return of the money a solemn guarantee when they want to assure entitlement recipients that it's their money in a trust fund. It can't be both: and it isn't. The money being withheld for FICA is for the benefit of the retiree, and not for the United States of America.

Yes they do. EITC Offsets it

That's a pretty pathetic argument.

They still don't pay their fair share.

Don't be an apologist for the welfare class.
